This was made using an Altoids Tin (shown at Convention '05). I made it for my Dad's 70th birthday, and it includes all 17 grandchildren (in age order) and their birthdates. He travels a lot and can take it with him.

What an awesome idea! All his little gems are safe and untattered. I am visualizing him ficking open this when someone asks to see pictures of his grandchildren and it spilling out forever. What a beautiful thing!
